Distribution and Posting of Printed Materials Policy

The Clearwater Public Library System maintains designated spaces for posting and distribution of informational literature at each of its facilities.

Display and distribution is only reserved for items sponsored by the Clearwater Public Library System, the City of Clearwater, the Clearwater Library Foundation, Friends of the Clearwater Library, Pinellas County Government, as well as public educational institutions, the State of Florida, the federal government of the United States of America, the Tampa Bay Library Consortium and the Pinellas Public Library Cooperative when space allows. After library material has been displayed or provided for distribution, informational literature from the aforementioned agencies will be made available for distribution to the public based on the Library’s determination of interest in, timeliness of and demand for the material. The preferred size for all postings will be 8.5x11 inches or less. Posters may not be allowed due to lack of space. Posting and removal of items will be done only by library staff. The Library will not be responsible for returning any materials.
